    Since he hadn't responded to your post yet, he might be doing that right now. I just got in from shoveling snow for my brother-in-law then for myself after we got back home. Nope, I think he's hibernating like he said.:D

    I agree there is a point when riding would stop being fun that point is 35 deg. If it is below freezing the potential for ice exists .

    The snow's about all gone and it's supposed to get up around 40 by Wednesday or Thursday so I hope to get a few miles on the bike. Now whether I do or not remains to be seen..........:D:D

    I'll go along with the "fun" factor. If it's too cold to enjoy the ride, whats the point? Of course, my cold weather tolerance is much stronger in the early spring!

    I got a pair of heated gloves for Christmas so when spring comes in 4 months I should be able to ride at 35-40 degrees with no problem.
